Author's Notes:  Thanks to all who reviewed.  Sorry I haven't updated recently, but I just have been kind of busy, and I haven't really had time to update.  Sorry!  So, hope you like this chapter, and I might go back and change all the chapter names to an actual name instead of just the chapter number, to make my story better.  Anyways, I bet you want to know about the chapter, not any of the crap I'm talking about!  Well, on with the chapter…

Peyton woke up to the sound of her blaring phone, sending a shrill ring into the dusk air. 

"Hello?"  A groggy Peyton answered, wondering who would call at this hour of the morning.  It was like two thirty in the morning, and she was very confused.  Lucas was laying beside her, and then Peyton remembered that Lucas had stayed the night the night before, and she felt extremely excited.

"Peyton, it's Brooke.  I just came out of the hospital, I've been calling for hours, where have you been?  I tried to call Lucas too, but his mom said he didn't come home last night.  She thinks he stayed the night with someone from the basketball team."  Brooke was talking really fast, and Peyton was still sleeping.  Brooke talked like how dare they sleep in the middle of the night.  God, she hated tha tabout Brooke.  She thought the world revolved around her. 

"Okay, Brooke, so what is the big deal?  You went to check the hospital for Lucas, believe his mom, he stayed the night with someone.  If that was all you wanted, then I'll talk to you tomorrow.  I don't have to know where Lucas is at all times.  So, is that all you wanted?"  Peyton looked down at Lucas, and he was stirring.  I guess her voice was getting too high, and she was going to wake him up if she didn't calm down.

"PEYTON!  Stop being so mean, I just lost the baby!"  Peyton felt really bad and sorry for Brooke, but then she listened to the tone of Brooke's voice.  Peyton realized something.  Brooke wasn't sad at all.  And even though Peyton wasn't too thrilled at the thought of having a baby, she would be heartbroken if she found out she lost it.  Brooke didn't even act sad, and she loved Lucas supposedly more than Peyton did.  What was up with her?

"Oh, god, Brooke, I'm so sorry.  How'd you lose it?  How'd they say that you lost it?  Did you fall down or something, or did you just wake up and it was gone?"  Peyton was really confused.  Meanwhile, Lucas was waking up, and he was starting to mumble.


"Peyton, who is it?"  Lucas mumbled sleepily, yet with a kinda loud voice, and Peyton tried to cover it up by talking louder.

"Brooke!  Answer me!  How'd you lose it?"  Peyton figured she did a good job of covering it up.

"Peyton, do you know where Lucas is?  Did he stay the night with you last night?  Is he there right now?"  Peyton was sure Brooke couldn't have heard his voice, but there she was, asking her flat out.  She should tell the truth, but what good what it do her?  To have a clean concience?  Well, she could deal with her conscience later.  Now, she had to deal with her "best friend."

"No Brooke, why would you think that?"  Peyton asked nonchalantly, closing her hand over Lucas' mouth, causing him to just doze off again.  But Peyton kept her hand in place.

"Oh, I just thought I heard his lovely voice.  But I guess I was mistaken.  Can I come over?  I'm really upset, and I think I need to talk to someone about it.  I think I need to talk to my best friend about it.  I'll be over in few. Kay?"  Brooke emphasized the words best and friend, I guess to just make her feel bad.  It made Peyton really mad that Brooke only started to act sad when she thought she could catch Peyton in a lie.  Somehow she thought Brooke really did know that she was lying. 

"Oh really?  Well, Brooke, I guess you're just daydreaming about Lucas, and you thought you heard his lovely voice.  And, Brooke, I know you aren't that sad about losing the baby, I can tell it in your voice.  And, if you don't mind, can I just go back to sleep.  Sorry, but I am having nausea really bad, and I need to get it to go away."  Peyton hoped she sounded convincing, she was starting to convincer herself that Lucas wasn't really here, even though she was looking right at him. 

Brooke sighed, and it made Peyton breathe a sigh of relief.  "Fine, but you owe me, big time."  Brooke said those words then clicked off her phone, making Peyton's nervousness go away.

What do I owe her for, she's the one that lost her baby.  Somehow.  Peyton wrapped her arms around Lucas, and he shifted to cuddle into her too.  They both fell asleep, lost in their dreams of the future.

Brooke slammed on the gas in her red convertible.  She was gonna show Peyton and Lucas, both her so-called friends that lying to Brooke got you nowhere.  Peyton could lie to her, but she couldn't hide from her.  Brooke made her way to Peyton's house, and "accidentally" slammed into Peyton's car, causing two of the right side windows to shatter.  Brooke then drove away,  her heart beaming with utter satisfaction.  That shows you to mess with me.
